Description:

RECEPTIVE STRUCTURE. Casale Tavernelle is located in the hamlet of Prodo, a few kilometres from Orvieto. We are in Umbria, the "green heart of Italy", a land rich in art and history with churches, monasteries, palaces, borghi and castles. The house, built entirely of river stone, is the result of recent, careful and skilful renovation that has kept its charm and peculiarities intact, in full respect of local tradition, creating a welcoming domestic atmosphere, with stylistic and logistical choices, contemporary designs regarding both comfort and sustainability. Exposed chestnut ceiling beams with pure white tiles, handcrafted honeycomb terracotta floors, optical cementino tiles in the bathrooms; finishes in warm natural colours characterise all the rooms furnished with contemporary furniture and with captivating urban details. The first floor windows fill the rooms with light and allow you to admire the well-kept garden with lawn that extends to the beautiful swimming pool for exclusive use, overlooking the hills of Prodo with relaxing poetic sunsets. The large outdoor park, the welcoming living areas, the cosy bedrooms, the modern bathrooms and the ground floor living area with kitchenette and pergola just a few metres from the swimming pool, make this residence the ideal destination for guests looking for a quiet private place. Casale Tavernelle offers the opportunity of living a unique and complete experience, with the spectacle of nature and the impressive cultural and artistic heritage that characterises the surrounding area. Its geographical location makes it particularly suitable for making short trips to visit the many localities of Umbria such as Orvieto, Todi, Assisi and Perugia, and also, thanks to an excellent network of road and rail links, nearby Tuscany with the renowned towns of Montepulciano and Pienza, and Lazio with Civita di Bagnoregio, Bolsena and Viterbo. In Prodo (2 km from the house) is a bar with a small general store selling basic necessities. Bars, grocery shops and a bus stop are in Colonnetta, a hamlet 8 km from Casale Tavernelle; all other shops, services, pharmacies, banks, ATMs, etc. are located in Ciconia (18 km) near Orvieto Scalo.

CASALE TAVERNELLE HAS BEEN SUBJECTED TO A CHECK-UP BY A TECHNICAL RESPONSIBLE BEFORE THE BEGINNING OF THE SEASON, TO ENSURE CONSISTENCY OF THE DESCRIPTION, ACCESSORIES LISTED ON THIS PAGE AND THEIR PRESENT STATE OF OPERATION/MAINTENANCE, TO GUARANTEE QUALITY, CLEANLINESS AND COMFORTS TO ALL CLIENTS WHO WILL STAY HERE.

Interior:

Casale Tavernelle (160 sqm) has two floors with independent entrances, not connected internally. A convenient terracotta and stone staircase leads from the parking area to the first floor where the security door opens into the bright open-plan area consisting of a sitting area with Smart TV, a panoramic dining area overlooking the pool and a well-equipped kitchen with induction hob. Facing this open-plan area are two double bedrooms, a bathroom with anteroom and king-size shower, a bathroom with tub and a twin bedroom. The ground floor consists of a living area with direct exit to the pergola, with dining table and barbecue, overlooking the pool and just a few meters from it. The living area is equipped with a practical kitchen block with induction hob, sink and a small refrigerator, with pantry shelves and a sitting area with Smart TV. The ground floor is served by a convenient bathroom with king-size shower, with entrance from outside, also for use of the swimming pool. All bedrooms, living areas, kitchen and ground floor living room have air conditioning with independent control units. The fireplaces are ornamental.

Park:

The park of Casale Tavernelle extends for about one hectare, characterized mainly by gravel areas and a well-kept lawn. The property is surrounded by majestic cypresses, cedars of Lebanon, Arizona pines, olive trees, mulberry trees and other tall trees that guarantee pleasant areas of natural shade, with a hammock and an outdoor seating area. Outside the French window of the ground floor living area is the pergola, ideal for sipping an apéritif or dining with friends while admiring enchanting sunsets over the pool area, furnished with table, chairs and the nearby barbecue. The house is bordered by herbs and multicoloured roses; a path crosses the young orchard and winds through the woods below the borgo of Prodo, ideal for pleasant walks. Several metres past the automatic steel gate is the parking area with three uncovered spaces and the annex for private use of the property for the storage of tools and machinery pertaining to the house. The wood oven is not included in the equipment. Please notice that photos are taken in spring, therefore flower blossoming, and the colours of the gardens' grass could be different at the moment of your arrival at the villa.

Swimming Pool:

The swimming pool of Casale Tavernelle is located on the same level as the ground floor and easily reachable from the pergola which is 15 metres away. Located to the south-west in a quiet secluded position, overlooking the valley with the hills on the horizon, it has a solarium in terracotta framed by a plush lawn with umbrellas, sunbeds and a solar shower. The pool measures 5 x 10 m, 2 m of which is a beach entry, 30 cm deep, and three large semi-circular steps for access to the water; in the remaining 8 m the depth varies from 1 to 1.50 m. The rectangular pool is lined in pearl grey PVC with a terracotta border and has chlorine purification and spotlights both internally and in the solarium, set both on the terracotta and on the lawn. The pool is served by the ground floor bathroom with shower and is open from the last Saturday in April to the first Saturday in October.

Location and distances


Prodo is a small borgo of the municipality of Orvieto, in the province of Terni. Its splendid geographical location is nestled between a group of hills that slope down towards the artificial lake of Corbara, created by the damming of the river Tiber in the southern part of the region of Umbria, between Orvieto and Todi. This tiny residential area is dominated by an ancient medieval castle built in 1222 by the Signori Prodenziani (hence the name) and is clustered around a square, a short avenue flanked by lime trees, locust trees and privets and the Romanesque Church of San Leonardo entirely in stone that contains important frescoes, a beautiful organ and discreet polychrome ceramics of Della Robbia style. Its strategic position rendered it an impregnable stronghold, still in good condition today. Here you can enjoy the purity of the air and the quiet of the woods, to find again that serenity and equilibrium that too often is lost with frenetic city life, immersed in an uncontaminated world where silence, colours and scents are the setting for every season. In the immediate vicinity of Casale Tavernelle you can discover the charm of a cool swim in the natural pools carved in the rock by the stream (Fosso Campione) close to the borgo, venture onto speleological and canyoning routes in the Forra di Prodo (alone or with expert guides), practice hiking, biking and other types of naturalistic excursions (on marked trails). Moving on, you will appreciate other unspoiled natural and landscape beauties such as Monte Peglia, the Tiber River Park, the Oasis of Alviano, the Monte Rufeno Natural Park, Monte Amiata, the Marmore Waterfalls. Casale Tavernelle is an excellent starting point for exploring the magnificent art towns of Orvieto, Todi, Assisi, Perugia, Spoleto, Norcia, Cascia, Terni and the whole tour of the Region; Rome, Siena and Florence are also easily reachable thanks to the excellent motorway and rail links. And again the typical gastronomy of the territory and the excellent Umbrian cuisine, the winemaking tradition, the ceramics of Orvieto and Deruta, the Umbrian folklore and culture. The property is located 18 km from Orvieto Scalo with a railway station, motorway exit, supermarkets, hospitals, banks, restaurants, pharmacies, all shops and services, which can be reached in less than half an hour from the house. In the hamlet of Colonnetta, which is 8 km away, you will find a grocery store, a bar and the bus stop. In Prodo (2 km from the house) is a bar with a small general store with basic necessities.

And to protect you in the case of damage caused to the property?

ZER0DEP COVER - by EuropAssistance (Mandatory) 49€ each reservation The new "Zer0Dep" guarantee protects you and allows you to have a tranquil holiday. Zer0Dep stands for "Zero deposit"; it is an insurance coverage developed in partnership with EuropAssistance which replaces the security deposit and which is therefore mandatory. The benefits of this guarantee are: you do not pay the security deposit on arrival: neither in cash nor by immobilising a substantial amount on your credit card limit;
  • you are protected in the case of eventual damage to the property caused accidentally during your stay (up to the maximum limit of 1500 euro);
  • you avoid any dispute on the responsibility of the damage and its quantification during check-out;
  • you can enjoy your villa holiday in greater tranquillity.
